This book analyses the making of the Chinese middle class that started in the 1990s using a constructivist approach. As such, the making of the middle class is the result of three convergent phenomena: an attempt to define the middle class, a process of civilization, and the development of protest movements.

“A major contribution to the literature not only on the middle-class phenomenon in China, but also on the industrialized and industrializing world's understandings of class more generally. It will be useful reading for students on courses in China studies, sociology and politics, and should be mandatory for any researcher interested in social change in China, not only for its analysis and findings, but also for the richness of its source material and the sophistication of its methodology.” (David S. G. Goodman, China Quarterly Review, Vol. 231, September, 2017)“This important contribution is the best effort yet by Western social scientists in their continuous struggle to define what being middle class means in Chinese society. … A thoughtful book worthy of further consideration. Summing Up: Recommended. All academic levels/libraries.” (W. R. Jankowiak, Choice, Vol. 54 (11), July, 2017)
